SBAM lobbying prowess recognized by Capitol insiders

The Small Business Association of Michigan has been recognized by its peers as one of the top lobbying organizations in the state. The 2011 MIRS/EPIC-MRA Insider Survey sent, out to more than 1,000 lobbyists, staff members and legislators, revealed that SBAM tied for second place, behind the Michigan Chamber of Commerce, as the state’s best single-issue lobbying organization. SBAM’s Vice President Government Relations David Palsrok tied for fourth place as the “most effective single-issue lobbyist.” Tied for fifth place was SBAM’s President and CEO Rob Fowler.
